one of the best shows i've ever seen is when TMBG *opened for themselves* as The Sapphire Bullets of Pure Love and played Flood from top to bottom. nothing short of transformative.
This They Might Be Giants TONIGHT SHOW performance of "Birdhouse In Your Soul" from 1990 remains firmly lodged in my noggin thanks to the Tonight Show Band's full commitment and Doc Severinsen's incredible trumpeting... It took an already great song and made it transcendent.

not me over here covered in goosebumps watching Junior Alvarado with a HAND RIDE down the stretch and giving neck pats across the wire, like it was never in doubt. Sovereignty is a special, special horse. what a team.

My rule is that I can say anything I want on the air -- for example, one of the seven dirty words -- one time. And then the FCC and my employer will agree that it's time for me do to something else.

Today might be the day.
I appreciate these economists explaining why this is all nonsense, but I think they need to swear more.

James Marsden is too hot for this apocalypse. I’m stressed and horny and confused. I prefer to be only one of those things at a time.

This is probably only one of only two, maybe three halftime shows ever which actually have an artistic point of view beyond “here are my greatest hits”. It’s already extraordinary.
